Description
Overview
LATICRETE PERMACOLOR is a fast-setting, polymer-fortified cement grout for tile and stone walls and floors. Its Water Dispersion Technology helps disperse mixing water for a dense joint, while the upgraded formulation improves strength and stain resistance compared with the previous PERMACOLOR formula.
Features
- Manufacturer reports 20% higher strength and 30% improved stain resistance versus the previous formulation.
- Improved color consistency with resistance to efflorescence.
- No sealing required; easier spreading and cleaning.
- Microban protects the grout against mold and mildew; regular cleaning remains necessary.
- Durable vertical-orientation packaging.

Applications
Use for interior or exterior floor and wall tile/stone joints in residential and commercial installations. Choose the selected color and confirm tile and joint compatibility before mixing.
Plan Your Installation
- Test on the actual tile to check color results and pigment absorption. Porous tile may require sealing before grouting.
- Maintain consistent mixing and cleanup conditions across the installation; jobsite conditions can affect the final color.
- Do not use acid to clean colored joints. For demanding chemical resistance, select the manufacturer’s specified industrial grout instead.
Common Planning Questions
Does no-sealing-required mean no cleaning is needed?
No. Maintain a regular cleaning regimen and remove material that can accumulate on the grout surface.
